Come join us as we chat with Stone from @stonefinity and @onefinity! One of the faces we've come to see as synonymous with the company, Stone chats about his journey from maker to CNC expert. Luck would also have it that this episode lands smack in the middle of an entire WEEK of product launches for Onefinity, so Stone gives us the run down on what has launched so far and gives us a little sneaky hint at what is coming tomorrow. All in all, this was a great hang-sesh with a maker that is...

What a riot! From selling a coffee table MEANT for his wife to an adult film actress to trading cutting boards for Traegers, Shane's journey as a maker is so fantastical it's almost unbelievable. The G.O.A.T. of multi-layer epoxy pours, Shane is a humble maker looking to share this process with as many people as he can, including teaching the people over at Vectric a new way to use their own software.

Get to know Drew of @fernwoodfarmswoodworking with us! Biggest take away- Drew hates cnc's and doesn't care for people that use them either (this is not in any way true). Give this one a listen and get to know a true down-to-earth maker that has a drive to build projects that bring him joy. Plus, TJ was in Mexico, so technically this was a globally broadcasted live.
